CaseIH Maxxum vs Ford (April 1990)

I recently bought ANOTHER box of old CaseIH training / marketing / educational / video cassettes at an auction. This 18 min. video compares the benefits of the new Maxxums to their Ford counterparts of this era. Very ironic that by the end of the decade that this video was made, both companies would be merged under Case New Holland (CNH).
Enjoy!

Now that these tractors are within my budget, this is actually relevant to me now.

Back when manufacturers cared and talked about RELIABILITY.

[@Mackeson3]

That IH we bought new in 1977 certainly couldn't be called "Reliable" 😡

[@BillytheBob256]

What was it a 66 or 86 series, or something else

[@loganbeedy5950]

@@Mackeson3what model was it?

[@Mgn-ke3zb]

We hade a Maxxum 5140 on a farm i work on it hade 32000 hours on it and still going strong. Gearbox hade a rebuild or 2 but the cummins was still original :)

[@sstroh08]

Mgn1983 wow impressive!!

[@gilfavor4455]

thx 4 info👍

[@MrJokkoma]

Now we're talking. Today's tractors will never make half the time.

[@fatihunal5457]

So how many hours did it work without revision?

[@7rixee]

It was an amazingly good tractor considering it was planned from a scratch. One of the better vintage tractors along with 6000 and 6010 John Deeres. Deere is quieter but turning radius is close to that of a 747.

[@SubvenioArguo]

The Ford tractor range of the 90s' can trace it's ancestry back to 1965 but they updated and enhanced their ranges constantly which made them good performers and great value.

[@michaelfisher7759]

Driven both, still rather have the Ford !!

[@scottywood9727]

Who'd of known they'd end up the same company 😅

[@gavinsstuff6145]

We have a 2000 maxxum 120 On the loader for loading hay trucks with a partial power shift and a hydraulic clutch You can run that thing for a 15 hours strait with out getting a tried foot (back and forth)

[@leslieholman3121]

And now they’re both one company and are both Fix It Again Tony’s

[@jwhitley101whitleyfarms9]

Must be a green fanatic well that gives me more options on the used case stuff nothing like buying a tractor and fixing it when it breaks. We all know if it's green and breaks mother deere has to come or it won't run

[@brightleafmotorsports6826]

We've had a 5140, a 5150 & a 5240 MFD. Very Reliable tractors sans the poor design of a parking brake. If someone forgot it was engaged you can hang it up. then using chucks or lowering implements become the norm.

[@favorit926vario5]

A lot of differences and today only difference is the color.

[@maSHEALY]

A real salesman

[@iroquoispliskin5956]

Love these videos. Hail nostalgia!!

[@MA70with2JZGTE]

I actually like the Maxxum series, but why do they compare a brand new Maxxum with an over 15 year older Ford "design". The 40 Series from 1992 are even better in cab design, gearbox and maintenance.

[@brianbooher7318]

Yes they are my dad bought a 7740 he bought new an is still are main farm tractor has over 16 thousand hours and other than a altenator it's never had a thing done to it an it's been run yo hell an back .the only reason Ford went out is plain an simple they put theirselfs out of business building tractors that run forever

[@southofhere85]

I'd still rather own and operate a Ford

[@IcemanFXX09]

I remember video from when I was a kid...must have been the 7100 series...and had to be a half hour long...it had testimonials from farmers from the US and Canada...and used some classical music in the beginning and throughout the video...wish I could find it here on KZbin!!!

[@michaelpowell9640]

I didn't purchase either 😕 I chose a Case international 956 XL one of the last built ones brilliant tractor.

[@ylwpyro9549]

I guess it really depends on your budget and farming situation that determines which tractor you buy. The Ford is cheaper for sure, but the Case IH seems to have more features, convenience and comfort. As for the reliability and mechanics, I can't say because I've never driven either of these tractors.

[@jimgregg9542]

Let’s be honest....we all want his haircut and Members Only Jacket.

[@MartinBradyRallyCoDriver]

Thanks for sharing, great to watch this.

[@hughmarcus1]

Total irony is that they’re now all one.

[@Guillaume_F]

the video is from 1990. The 40 series was not launched yet.

[@laugesteffensen8768]

top of the pop vintage brands. Ford, John Deere. Ferguson and Case, those where the days ;-)

[@Owenie100]

Case is a good tractor but why is the cab so small... Like the Cummins engine but the price of replacement hydraulic pump is crazy

[@Ethan-ck6iz]

Case's old cabs always seem inferior to me, only until the 21st century did they figure it out

[@fordtractors4100]

say what they want, id still take that 7710 first!

[@nocotton]

I owned a Ford 7710 series II (and many other Ford Blue models) and it was flawless. I currently own a larger but older IH 1086. Not the same series as described here, but I can say the 86 is an outright nightmare to shift and it rides like a brick. Additionally, you could remove all panels on the Ford by hand for quick servicing. Takes almost 10 minutes with a socket on one side and a wrench on the other with my IH ( if you hold your mouth just right). Again, not a truly accurate comparison with the model described here, but I've owned both red and blue and overall I had better luck, more comfort, and less of a pain in the a#% with blue.

[@thomasedwards87]

[@tractorgpsnl6593]

nice video. i really like te brand new ford tractors☺

[@zaltsa3224]

wow, competitive comparison 5130maxxum year1990 and ford 7710 year1988 why? why not ford 7810 mk3 year1990, its small tractor with big tractor features. well i think that case wanted to be clever with the cantilevermount design but actually it makes the tractor much heavier case5130 weights 5000kg and ford 7710 only 4090kg so the real list of fords would be 7610mk3 7810mk3 and 8210mk3 ford8630 because the powershift

[@gonzo80009871]

wow we had a 197? ford 7000 with dual power yes we had to stop for ranges but not for the dual power or shifting .......i love how companies try to show how bad the other guys is and lies right threw the whole thing

[@brianbooher7318]

We had a 7000 great tractor

[@davidwallace3054]

Ford for life

[@dwynepen7626]

Buddy is lying like a rug about the Ford speed transmission.. we bought a new TW5 for the same price as a 5140 or less. Go Ford

[@sasop117]

the maxxum engine is better for sure, the froward and reverse shuttle is a great idea, but the thing is having driven a 7710 and a maxxum i'd choose the ford any day, because in the ford you feel as if you could driving though a ally way with 1 inch space ether side and full speed, and in the maxxum feel like the front wheels are connected with rope. the ford has better visibility were it matters in tight gateways and yards, that gives you a sense of control

[@jeffreyhollink985]

and the ford 8830 and de ford newhollan 8870A whit the power shift are stil beter than any case in the world

[@alejandrosanmartin5933]

Claro... el Case Internacional es mas completo que el Ford, mas tecnologia incorporada, pero el tractor Ford simplemente fue una marca de prestigio internacional en todo el mundo.

[@leslieholman3121]

Drove a Ford New Holland and it was a good tractor but the best tractor I ever drove was A 5230 Maxxum and the funny part is that one of the worst tractors I ever drove was a 5220 . That thing was broken down all the time.
